Detecting genomic islands using bioinformatics approaches
Bacterial genomes contain clusters of genes that are acquired by horizontal transfer, called
genomic islands (GIs). GIs are frequently associated with microbial adaptations that are of …

Phylogenetic analysis of nitrite, nitric oxide, and nitrous oxide respiratory enzymes reveal a complex evolutionary history for denitrification
Denitrification is a facultative respiratory pathway in which nitrite (NO2−), nitric oxide (NO),
and nitrous oxide (N2O) are successively reduced to nitrogen gas (N2), effectively closing …
